FREDERICK H. ARNoLn, or R ADINQPENNS LVANIA i I-SAEIET'Y-RAZOH.

Be it known that I FREDERICK H.'ARNOLD, a citizen ,of. the United States, residing at Readin' ,in the'county of Berks and State of Pennsy Vania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Safety-Razors,

,of which the 'following is aspecification.

This invention relates to improvements in safety-razors and the object of the invention at their inner ends by means of -a handle screwed ontoshanks formed on said plates.

istoprovide a novel means of securingthe cutting-blade to the guard-plate 3 The invention is intended more particularly as an'impro'vemcnt on the device shown and described in m pending application,=S erial No. 275,514.

gether at their outer ends and held together In my presentdevicel use but a single plate and provide simple means for securing the blade thereto.

The invention is more fully describedin' the followin specification, and clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in .which-- 4 .Figure 1 is a plan view of the device with the blade removed. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the complete device. Fig. 3 is a detail view of the blade.

The numeral 1 designates the guard-plate. This plate is formedwith the usual teeth alon either side, a hook 2 at its outer end, and On the extremity of this reduced portion I form a d with two ears 5, directly t erefrom. The plug 3 is made with varied outside diameters and is adapted to be engaged by a tubular handle 6 at either of its on s.

The numeral 7, desi nates a cam. This cam is pivotally mounted between the ears 5.

' .The numeral 8 designates the cuttingiipe'cifi cation 0t Letters Patent. I Application filed May-28.1906 Serial No. 319.073.

'- -blade. This blade is formed with a recess 9 'at-its outer end, adapted to engage the hook 2 on the guard-plate, and at its inner end witha narrow extension 10, adapted to lie onthe reduced stem portion of the plate beneath the cam. The 'guard' pl'ate is provided with positioning-lugs 1'1 and the'blade. with 1 re istering perforations '12.

en-it'is desired to placethe blade in position in the guard, theeXtension10 thereof slid under the cam-'7'ai1d its opposite end in engagement. with the hook 2. i The normal open position of the'cam .will easily permit the entrance of said extension between it "and the stem of the plate. The carn'is thenswung down to the position'shown in Fig. 2, and the blade is securely held in positionthereby.

' I The handle 6 may be removed from the rear end of the plug when" the razor is not in use and passed over the Having thus full described my invention,-

what I claim, and esire to secure by Letters Patent,,is f

I In a safetymazor the combination of a guard-plate provided withahook at its outer 'end a reduced stem-like portion at its inner end, a tapered plug formed onthe extremity 7 .-of said stem portion, ears formed 'on said stern portion, a cam pivotally mounted be-' tween said ears, positioning-lugs formed on said guard-plate, a blade formed with a recess at its outer end and a reduced portion at its inner end adapted to be clam ed to said plate by saidcam, a tubular andle ada ted to en age either end of said plug whi e lying on t sameplane with said -blade.- J

In'testimony'whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presenceof two subscribing witnesses.
